Cape Navel today and... yesterday

The ionosphere is disturbed again, but reception on 18238 kHz today at around (!) 1530z was the best I ever had! The transmission started early at 1523z, and was a "blurred" Surface Analysis chart.

18238 kHz, 1523z 12:00 Surface Analysis

But yesterday... a series of false starts:

• 1538z: Transmission of a "blurred" Surface Analysis starts.
• 1549z: Stops! Starts again!
• 1552z: Starts again! Ends!
• 1553z: New trial: Header only!
• 1555z: New attempt, this one finishes normally at 1616z!
